PA Sire Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 Fired up for my lig's SB. Big game kicking things off on Friday which runs right into Christmas Eve mass and dinner with the in-laws. Christmas Day doesn't get much better either. Like the song says, "It's the most wonderful time of the year!" Who's got Christmas coming via the NFL instead of Santa and what are you doing about it?

Savage Beatings Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 Mother in-lay 628311[/snapback] Sounds like a very tight knit family. Here's how we've structured the weekend: Football, Food, Church, Presents, Food, Football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skylive5 Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 Absolutely nothing is ruining my Christmas. Christmas movies on the TV.... Good food when it is finished cooking..... Family......(Wife..Kids...Grandkids..) Just don't get any better than that. Screw a bunch of NFL people and their scheduling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driveby Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 Since we're not going north for Christmas this year.... It's mostly football, with time out for church and opening presents and food. It's going to be a quiet one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoJoTheWebToedBoy Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 Mine is more of a traditional 50s kind of setup. Men in the living room watching sports, women in the kitchen cooking and gabbing. Ahhh yes, just as God intended when he invented Football.....

Gunther Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 Worked out pretty good this year, we have spent Christmas with her family already. My family will be next week. I mentioned that football was on every day starting Christmas Eve and she said she understood, as long as I'm home... She must want something...

Swashbucklers Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 I will be watching the game tomorrow at the bar (Go C-Pepe and Wiggins), told the wife that I am finishing up Christmas shopping. Her family after that (hope I'm not too tanked)! Christmas morning, my family. Christmas night, hers, knowing that I will be watching football. It's not every year that I am in the finals!!! Sunday is for football. I grew up Catholic so I went to church every week. Needless to say, I don't attend any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
